As we journey together through the solemn days of Lent, the Alliance for Catholic Education and ThinkND invite you to join us as we walk toward the light that our faith tells us lies ahead.
Join us for Grace Period, a weekly series of audio reflections by Fr. Lou DelFra, C.S.C. ’92, M. Div. ’03, designed to meet your busy schedule and help you pause, listen for God’s voice in your life, and begin anew.
How we can persevere with hope when it seems like Christ is absent during our time of need?
We look to the Gospel of Mark, when a furious squall threatens to sink the disciples’ boat as Jesus sleeps.
Was Christ powerless against the squall? Did he not care?
Jesus was showing them (and us) what it’s like to trust, even in a storm, that we have a God who has our lives—and all that happens within them — securely in hand.
The more we can allow this bedrock spiritual reality to settle into our souls, the more calm and hopeful we can be in the midst of life’s storms.
Thanks for listening! The ThinkND Podcast is brought to you by ThinkND, the University of Notre Dame's online learning community.
